“…Pasque flowers (Pulsatilla spp., Ranunculaceae) are not only important components in natural ecosystems (Bochenková et al 2012(Bochenková et al , 2015 but are also widely exploited by human. Numerous species have medicinal properties (Danova et al 2009;Hao et al 2015;Lin et al 2011;, whereas ornamental, honey-yielding cultivars are readily cultivated in gardens (Weryszko-Chmielewska et al 2017). Horticultural exploitation of Pulsatilla species is constantly extending, and novel Communicated by M. I. Beruto.…”

Pulsatilla turczaninovii is an important medicinal plant, valued for high ornamental value of melliferous flowers. We assessed the efficiency of reproduction under in vitro conditions and the ex situ growth capacity of this important representative of the world flora. The seed germination percentage was assessed, followed by determination of micropropagation rate and rooting efficiency. Then, the possibility of plant development in three consecutive growing seasons was assessed. The in vitro germination percentage was approximately 55%. The highest multiplication coefficient, amounting to 5.17, was obtained on modified MS medium supplemented with 2.5 mg L−1 2iP and 1.0 mg L−1 IAA. Our study provided unique insight on biochemical background of root regeneration in P. turczaninovii. In comparison with standard auxin-supplemented rooting medium, the treatment with 1.0 mg L−1 level of ethylene precursor ACC elevated rooting by about 20%. The total content of soluble sugars was proved to be biomarker of rhizogenesis in the studied species. Their concentration was positively correlated with rooting efficiency, while a level of phenolic was positively correlated with the length of regenerated roots, and their number per rosette. The cultivation of the acclimatized material was successfully carried out and was evaluated over three subsequent years. In the third year of cultivation, the plants entered the stage of generative development and most of them bloomed profusely.

“…Representatives of the Ranunculaceae family are highly valued for their multiple usefulness for humans, and due to long-term growth and relative longevity of populations they are of great importance in the natural environment (Antoń and Kamińska 2015;da Silva et al 2012;Hao et al 2015;Jiang et al 2017;Deng et al 2019). In addition to high value in nature (Bochenková et al 2012(Bochenková et al , 2015, Pulsatilla species have medicinal properties (Danova et al 2009;Hao et al 2015;Lin et al 2011;. Moreover, many colorful cultivars are used in green areas because Pulsatilla owers, profusely secreting nectar, are attractive to pollinators (Weryszko-Chmielewska et al 2017).…”

Pulsatilla turczaninovii is an important medicinal plant and a material also appreciated by gardeners for its high ornamental value. In this study we assessed the efficiency of reproduction under in vitro conditions of this important representative of the world flora. First, the germination percentage and the following plant development during three growing seasons were assessed, then we tested the possibilities of multiplication by in vitro culture methods. Our study provided new insight on biochemical background of generating adventitious roots in Pulsatilla considered difficult-to-rooting. The germination percentage of studied population reached about 55%. The highest multiplication coefficient of micro-rosettes in tissue culture, amounting to 5.17, was achieved using modified MS medium supplemented with 2.5 mg L-1 2iP and 1 mg L-1 IAA. We proved that in comparison with standard auxin-supplemented rooting medium, the treatment with addition of 1.0 mg L-1 ethylene precursor ACC elevated adventitious rooting by about 20%. The biochemical analyses revealed that total content of soluble sugars was the most impactful biomarker of adventitious rhizogenesis in studied species. Concentration of sugars was positively correlated with rooting efficiency, while the level of phenolic compounds was positively correlated with the root length and their number regenerated per single rosette.

“…Anemone is a genus of more than 150 species of flowering plants in the family Ranunculaceae , native to the temperate zones of northern and southern hemispheres. 1 Many Anemone species have been used traditionally in medicine. The plant Anemone chapaensis Gagnep., which was first discovered in 1929, is considered as the most tropical distribution of Anemone species and limitedly distributed in the northern west region of Vietnam surrounding Hoang Lien mountains at 1500 to 2000 m altitude.…”

Our current research on phytochemical profile of the folk medicinal plant Anemone chapaensis Gagnep. led to the isolation of a new saponin, chapaenoside (1), along with 13 known compounds (2-14). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive chemical and spectroscopic methods (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance [NMR] spectroscopy and mass spectrometry) as well as comparison with the literature data. The isolated compounds were tested for their cytotoxic activities against 9 cancer cell lines by MTT method. The result indicated that the major saponin prosapogenin CP6 (5) showed selectively strong activity against NCI-N87, RD, Panc-1, and MIA Paca-2 cells with the IC50 values of 5.4, 7.5, 7.5, and 2.7 μM, respectively. The results of phytochemical constituents and principal bioactive saponins from A. chapaensis contributed not only to its phytochemical profile associated with chemotaxonomy but also to biological evidence of the title plant.
